AFAIK, they have all the blocking bugs fixed, and sometime soonish I'd expect they'll roll a pre-release, have the PMC members test and vote on it, then release it. At that point, the FreeBSD ports may pick it up, however I'm not exactly well versed in the politics of FreeBSD release cycles. > > Do I just fetch the file, unzip it in the p5-Mail-SpamAssassin directory, > and run make deinstall; make reinstall? there is no deinstall or reinstall make target for the standard SA tarballs. If you need to uninstall it, you remove the files manually. (running make uninstall on the same source directory as your OLD sa will tell you what files to remove) In the normal tarball system you don't uninstall for upgrades anyway.. you just install again over top of the old one. That said, I strongly suspect that the FreeBSD ports tree is using very different install directories than the SA defaults. You'd have to extensively customize these. The normal tarball process is: untar it run perl MakeFile.pl, possibly passing it options to over-ride the default install directories make make test (su if not root) make install

Since its not in the ports tree yet- ( that's how I usually upgrade) Do I just fetch the file, unzip it in the p5-Mail-SpamAssassin directory, and run make deinstall; make reinstall? -Original Message- From: Randal, Phil [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 13, 2007 10:02 AM To: users@spamassassin.apache.org Subject: RE: what happened after 3.1.8?
